How to Beat Gangplank as Ornn (Top)

While statistically Ornn is slightly stronger than Gangplank in the top lane, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Ornn deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Gangplank has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Gangplank, ranking 7th (versus 23rd for Ornn) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.1 versus 2.4) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Ornn Top versus Gangplank Top matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Ornn player to maintain constant pressure on Gangplank, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
